Crime New Report : Several Apple suppliers using Uyghur forced labor

[MicroBrew]

- Advanced Connecteck, an OEM Apple supplier, has been providing components for Apple for more than 10 years. 2 of those years the company operated an industrial park at the edge of a desert in Xinjiang.

- The industrial park is surrounded by walls and fences with one way in / out. Next to this park is a large detention center identified as housing factory workers. The Australian researcher who identified the detention center says “almost no other factories in Xinjiang have these characteristics except for industrial parks where there is detainee labor.”

- 7 Apple suppliers have links to suspected forced labor

- Workers were shipped from Xinjiang to Apple supplier Luxshare. Avary Holdings , located in Huai'an, received 400 Xinjiang workers. Shenzen based Deren Electronic received 1000 Xinjiang workers. Lens Technology , which supplies Apple with glass for their phones, received 600 workers from Xinjiang.

- Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Facebook are also linked to the suppliers in question.

- Report from Australian Strategic Policy Institute also found links between Apple suppliers and Uyghur forced labor.

Uyghurs for sale

The Chinese government has facilitated the mass transfer of Uyghur and other ethnic minority1 citizens from the far west region of Xinjiang to factories across the country. Under conditions that strongly suggest forced labour, Uyghurs are working in factories that are in the supply chains of at least 82 well-known global brands in the technology, clothing and automotive sectors, including Apple, BMW, Gap, Huawei, Nike, Samsung, Sony and Volkswagen.

I guess I’ll have to boycott Apple!

 

[Trax]

Being part of the shadow government, nobody is gonna give a fuck.
Im just trying to imagine what would've happen to any other company apart from those mentioned above...

 

[Clifford_Harris]

I would boycott appl, but I've never used an Apple product in my life.

Been enjoying my new phone.

Maybe force manufacturing back to the US and moral dilemma solved.

 

[Proud American]

About now, the only decent phone to own is Nokia. What’s a computer that’s good? I have an old ass dell

you think leftists care about slave labor? Or genocide? Fuck no they don’t. They care about hating white people. It’s obvious by now.

Trump tried, and the globalist left decried his tariffs.

I bet leftists on this forum mocked the tariffs. 100% guaranteed

Based on the labor these phones should cost about $49.95US instead of $1250.00

Then we nuke 'em. Surgically, of course.

Apple stuff, like Nike and other trendy brands, are artifically inflated. With fashion brands, making them expensive makes them more desirable.

Apple as a brand is riding high , partly because they cultivated a trendy following but mostly because they excell technically. They could easily sell them cheaper, but why would they when people have no problem paying the inflated prices and the competition is not considered to be as good.

 

[Sketch]

Imagine something like this was going on in North America or Western Europe. Can you imagine the outrage.

 

[nostradumbass]

That's how US corporations beat the system. Slavery is illegal in the US, so just get labor from countries where it isn't.

 

[Garnet_StrongerThanYou]

Oh great. Actual slavery.

China is bad.

 

[mjfan23]

So will I get an iPhone 13 sooner or later this year?

 

[MaxMMA]

Ok yeah, but have you heard about all the injustices in the United States? Apparently not, because if you had, i doubt you'd be talking about China.

 

[Billthebutcher]

they use chinese sweatshops too

 

[CantCucktheTuck]

don't pretend like you give a shit.

 

[Scheme]

don't pretend like you give a shit.

If you use any product bought from the China/third world countries there's a good chance child or slave labour went into making in.

But people don't want to see pollution where they live. That is for other places!

So an American can't talk about the issues in America because China is worse?
